I define evil, then, as the exercise of political power — that is, the imposition of one’s will upon others by overt or covert coercion — in order to avoid extending one’s self for the purpose of nurturing spiritual growth. Ordinary laziness is nonlove; evil is antilove.
— M. Scott Peck Psychiatrist & author.
God bless those who can and do get down in the trenches with evil, whether fighting it, studying it or cleaning up its many messes.
Outstanding book
